Answer:

The total cost of the bond is none of the given choices.

Step-by-step explanation:

The selling price of a $1000 bond  =   $99.875

The brokerage fee = 5.5 %

Now, 5.5%  of $99.875 =  \frac{5.5}{100}  \times 99.875 = 5.493

So, the brokerage fee = $5.493

Now, to find out the total cost of the bond:

Total Cost  = The selling Price + Brokerage Price

                  = $99.875 + $5.493

                  =  $105.368

or, the total price of the $1000 bond is $ 105.368.

Hence,  the total cost of the bond is none of the given choices.

Two production lines produce the same parts per week of which 100 are defective. Line 2 produces 2,000 parts per week of which 1
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

(a) 0.0833 or 8.33%

(b) 0.40 or 40%

Step-by-step explanation:

Parts line one (n1) = 1,000 parts

Defects line one (d1) = 100 parts

Parts line two (n2) = 2,000 parts

Defects line two (d2) = 150 parts

Total number of parts (n) = 3,000 parts

a. Probability of a randomly selected part being defective:

P(d) = \frac{d_1+d_2}{n_1+n_2}=\frac{100+150}{1,000+2,000}\\P(d) =0.0833=8.33\%

The probability is 0.0833 or 8.33%

b. Probability of a part being produced by line one, given that it is defective:

P(1|d)=\frac{P(1\cap d)}{P(1\cap d)+P(2\cap d)}\\P(1|d)=\frac{\frac{100}{3,000} }{\frac{100}{3,000}+\frac{150}{3,000}}\\P(1|d)=0.4 = 40\%

The probability is 0.40 or 40%.

Darcie wants to crochet a minimum of 3 blankets blankets to donate to a homeless shelter. Darcie crochets at a rate of 1/15 of a
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

The inequality to determine the number of days, s, Darcie can skip crocheting and still meet her goal is:

s\leq 15

Thus, Darcie can skip a maximum of 15 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

Question

Darcie wants to crochet a minimum of 3 blankets to donate to a homeless shelter. Darcie crochets at a rate of 1/15 of a blanket per day. She has 60 days until when she wants to donate the blankets, but she also wants to skip crocheting some days so she can volunteer in other ways. Write an inequality to determine the number of days, s, Darcie can skip crocheting and still meet her goal.

Given:

Darcie has a target to crochet a minimum of 3 blankets.

Rate at which Darcie crochets = \frac{1}{15} of a blanket per day.

Darcie has 60 days to crochet the blankets

To write an inequality to determine the number of days, s, Darcie can skip crocheting and still meet her goal.

Solution:

The number of days Darcie can skip crocheting is represented by s

So, number of days left for Darcie to crochet = 60-s

In 1 day Darcie crochets  \frac{1}{15} of a blanket.

So, in (60-s) days she will crochet = \frac{1}{15}(60-s)  blankets.

Her aim is to crochet at least 3 blankets.

Thus, the inequality can be given as:

\frac{1}{15}(60-s)\geq 3

Solving for s

Multiplying both sides by 15 to remove fractions.

15\times\frac{1}{15}(60-s)\geq 3\times 15

60-s\geq 45

Subtracting both sides by 60.

60-60-s\geq 45-60

-s\geq -15

Dividing both sides by -1.

\frac{-s}{-1}\leq \frac{-15}{-1}     [ On dividing by negative number the sign of the inequality is reversed]

∴ s\leq 15

Thus, Darcie can skip a maximum of 15 days.

UNO [17]

Answer:

The correct option is 5) {Paul, Ringo, Pete, John, George, Stuart}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided sets:

B = {John, Paul, George, Ringo, Pete, Stuart}

Two sets are equal if all the elements of Sets are same.

Set B has the elements: John, Paul, George, Ringo, Pete and Stuart

Now consider the provided options of sets.

From the provided options of set only option 4 has all the elements of set B but the order is different.
